How to get Kullervo in Warframe
Kullervo is bought with 
Kullervo's Bane, a resource from Duviri. 
Acrithis in the Dormizone sells all 4 of his blueprints for 42 Banes in total.
- Finish The Duviri Paradox quest. Duviri opens after it.
- Start The Duviri Experience while the spiral mood is Anger, Sorrow or Fear. Those 3 moods spawn Kullervo's Hold.
- Talk to The Warden at Kullervo's Hold and beat Kullervo in the arena.
- Kill the Orowyrm to finish the spiral. The Banes arrive at the end of the run.
- Trade the Banes to Acrithis for the blueprints. Build the 3 parts, then the Warframe.
| Blueprint at Acrithis | Kullervo's Bane |
|---|---|
| Kullervo (main) | 15 |
| Neuroptics | 9 |
| Chassis | 9 |
| Systems | 9 |
| Total | 42 |
| Run | Banes per run |
|---|---|
| The Duviri Experience | 4 (30%), 5 (40%) or 6 (30%) |
| The Duviri Experience on The Steel Path | 6 (30%), 7 (40%) or 8 (30%) |
A normal run averages 5 Banes, so 42 Banes take about 9 runs. The Steel Path averages 7, which cuts it to about 6 runs.
The main blueprint builds with 30,000 Credits, the 3 parts and 10 
Pathos Clamps in 3 days. The Market also sells the finished Kullervo for 325 
Platinum.

Kullervo abilities and passive
| Ability | What it does |
|---|---|
| Passive | Every melee weapon he holds gets +75% Heavy Attack Efficiency and +100% Heavy Attack wind-up speed. |
 Wrathful Advance, 1st | Tap: he charges a Heavy Attack, teleports to the target and strikes, with a boost to Melee Critical Chance. Hold: he teleports to a marked spot. |
 Recompense, 2nd | Daggers circle him. A dagger that hits an enemy restores his Health, and at full Health it gives Overguard. A dagger that misses deals him a little damage. |
 Collective Curse, 3rd | A curse binds a group of enemies. Damage he deals to 1 cursed enemy spreads a share to every other cursed enemy. |
 Storm of Ukko, 4th | Daggers rain down on a chosen spot and apply Slash and Stagger. |
Kullervo plays as a melee frame. Wrathful Advance sets up the Heavy Attack, and Collective Curse spreads its damage across the pack.

Is there a Kullervo Prime?
Kullervo has no Prime version yet. Digital Extremes has not announced a Kullervo Prime.
The Market sells the full Kullervo for 325 Platinum, so Platinum skips the Bane farm. The Warframe Platinum guide shows how to earn it.
